    Its very unassuming from the exterior, tucked into a strip mall. But the interior is actually quite spacious with plenty of available seating. Service was friendly and accommodating the entire time. We ordered a variety of dishes, and they do have a kids menu as well. The pancakes make a great appetizer- but they are huge. That goes for many of the dishes- the kids noodle soup was enough to feed four kids. The fried rice was huge and packed with flavor, as was the Kung Pao chicken which was one of my favorite dishes. It was a great meal and we would definitely go back.

    Second visit just as good. Somewhere between American-Chinese and authentic Sichuan. I'm wondering if white-people tastebuds are so used to Panda Express, they don't know what good Chinese actually tastes like. #notsorry The half duck is fairly decent! It is cut into nice strips, which make for easy pancake building. Pancakes are nice and thin, nicely steamed. Don't bother going to Peking Gourmet. Their star has long since faded.

    Since writing one of the first reviews for this restaurant years ago, I've been back countless times, and have visited many of Peter Chang's newer restaurants in the area. There's no doubt Peter Chang suffered from some consistency problems as he tried to expand too quickly, but he is an outstanding chef, and he's finally figured out the operations end of things, and after a renovation and menu "clean up" last year, this original Arlington location is in top form and remains my favorite of his restaurants. Please take the mixed reviews with a grain of salt. People can be idiots. It pains me to look around this restaurant and see table after table ordering Lo Mein, Fried Rice, Bang Bang Shrimp, and spring rolls -- all Americanized items Chang added to the menu to satisfy the myriad requests from takeout diners who think every Chinese restaurant menu is the same. Don't be that guy. Order the chef's specialties. Get a soak in Chang's amazing hot and numbing sauce. Get shredded tofu skin salad. Get a beautiful braised fish dish. Get dry fried eggplant. If you don't order what the chef is known for, you have nobody to blame but yourself.

    Crispy fried eggplants (with chili) is delicious and unique Cucumber salad is good though creamy (not like traditional Chinese style cucumber salad) Three-cup chicken is not quite Taiwanese style but good Salt / pepper prawn is chunky (and generous portion) with spices We got takeout from their own website which worked well (there's the convenient option of paying at the restaurant). Food was ready and well packaged when we arrived (and prepared fast).
